Everyday Geometry - Taper Cup
Everyday Geometry - Taper Cup by Peta Berghofer
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Peta Berghofer is an Australian artist based on Giabal and Jarowair lands/Toowoomba, Queensland. Working with clay as her medium and the vessel as her form, Peta creates both ceramic sculptures and functional wares for daily use. Her work references historically familiar form and function, but she disrupts these expectations of traditional vessel-based, ceramic art practices.
Whether functional or functionless, Peta’s self-referential ceramics are most often presented as the same body of work, exhibited as abstracted still-life installations. Here she plays with distinctions between gallery and domestic spaces, engaging with historic and contemporary tensions between art, craft, and design.
ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Quiet Geometry brings together works from seven artists across multiple disciplines that explore the subtle power of line, form, and spatial order. Through measured compositions, this exhibition demonstrates how geometry can be both method and expression. Each work invites close attention, revealing a quiet language of balance, precision, and intentional design.
